Turning off logging in Paramiko

Question

I am using the ssh client provided by Paramiko to create a function call remoteSSH (the file name is remoteConnect.py):

import paramiko         


        

Answer 1

Paramiko names its logggers. It seems to function as the logging modules in other languages (JDK logging comes to mind) do.

I've found that

logging.getLogger("paramiko").setLevel(logging.WARNING) helps.

(You can put this inside the module that's importing paramiko - just make sure the 'logging' module is enabled as well).

It took me a while to figure out how to do this (in fact, it wasn't until I actually started dealing with Java logging that this answer came to mind)
